    About Hunter S.

    5.0
    (24)
    From numerous TV shows like Superstore, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Fresh Off The Boat, E.R., The Thundermans, Lady Dynamite, Happy Endings and Henry Danger, to theater at The Tony Award winning Steppenwolf Theater, Chicago Shakespeare, National Playwrights Conference and numerous others, my 20 year acting career has taught me many lessons to share. As a working writer/director, this has only grown. I love teaching. There are few things as rewarding as being a part of a student's development and their personal victories. Many of my students have achieved notable representation and consistently work. Other students are simply pursuing acting for the joy of it or a tool to gain confidence. Whether it's audition prep or personal development, if you bring the drive, I promise to get you to your goals ... oh, and we'll have a lot of fun on the way. After all, it's called a "play" for a reason.

    I booked Hunter last-minute for help with a big audition, and I'm so glad I did. He was able to hone in on my strengths and give clarity to the script. While I didn't book the part, I did get a call-back, which was a pretty big deal for me. Totally recommend him if you want to up your game.
